Budapest, Hungary and Berkeley, CA  October 24, 2005  AnaLogic Computers Kft and Eutecus, Inc are pleased to announce the latest addition to the award-winning Bi-i product line of smart cameras, the Bi-i V301.

Bi-i V301 is the latest addition to the award-winning Bi-i product line of smart cameras from AnaLogic Computers, Kft. The Bi-i V301 reduces the total cost of complex machine vision solutions.

The Bi-i V301 intelligent camera has been streamlined and optimized for industrial applications requiring high-speed image capturing as well as extremely fast execution of complex image processing tasks. In contrast to Bi-i V2, Bi-i V301 has a single high-resolution 1.3-Mpixel CMOS sensor, resulting in a more compact design with lower power consumption.

Gusztav Bartfai, President of AnaLogic, said The Bi-i V301 provides the industry with a lower price point intelligent camera with the increased capability of the award-winning Bi-i Family. Coupled with the InstantVision Integrated Software Environment (IV ISE), developers can have their applications up and running in only a few days.

Bi-i V301 runs the latest version of the InstantVision software libraries. Its flexible development environment was designed for rapid application prototyping to reduce the time-to-market of applications. The camera is housed in an industry-standard sized aluminum box, which makes it especially suitable for industrial and surveillance applications. It has Ethernet, USB and RS-232 interfaces, while applications run at speeds up to 1-GHz using the newest digital signal processor (DSP) from Texas Instruments.

When the Bi-i V301 is coupled with AnaLogics cross-platform InstantVision software libraries, the development time of machine vision applications can be greatly reduced. In addition to common image processing functions, InstantVision contains libraries for advanced image-flow processing (e.g., background detecion, active contour tracking), feature classification and multi-target tracking, which allows application developers to simply use these functions rather than having to develop them in-house. This not only saves development effort, but also increases product quality.

A fully-functional evaluation version of the Bi-i Software Development Kit (SDK) is now also available. Pricing and additional information for the Bi-i V301, other members of the Bi-i family as well as the SDK and the InstantVision libraries are available upon request from AnaLogic Computers for Europe and Eutecus Inc. for North America and Asia.
